Wes, forget trying to remove the text from over the top of the starfield vision, that's just a long road to nowhere. all you'll really need to do is CUT the bits that have the credits on them.

I'm not sure of your goal really, but if you're wanting to replace the credits with other names (say for a novelty video or whatever) I'd make/get my own starfield (a windows screensaver springs to mind) and put your new credits over the top.

I don't know where you're showing this, but do keep in mind that sequence is (like the rest of the show) subject to copyright.
